Marks In The Earth. Updated.

I woke up this morning and went outside to see if there was mist around. There was, even though the sun is weakly shining. While I was standing on the deck, I looked down at the ground and noticed that the earth had been moved around and in one place it looked like someone had slammed a hard object like a rock into the ground and then removed it. It's not a kick mark from something like a boot heel. My rubbish bin has been moved as well.
If this dark and poor behaviour by someone has been done to intimidate me then it hasn't worked.
For whatever reason they were here, carrying on like that is completely pathetic. The behaviour of a sick person. I have no idea who has been here or who has done this.
It wasn't an animal as plenty of cats and a sheep have come and gone and they haven't ever moved the earth like this. Definitely a human. Sick individuals around these days.

I want to write about wellness now after such an encounter. Tonight I must get in touch with the landlord as the grapevine has separated from the fence-wall. This happened last week when there were strong winds. I came back from a walk halfway through the week and saw that the vines along one side of the fence had come off.
Mind you, it did occur to me that someone may have ripped them off because I'm not sure that even a wind as strong as the one we had that day was capable of dislodging so much vine?

Come to think of it a dog could've made those marks in the earth and because the grapevines are heavy, the strong wind that day could very well have produced a domino effect ; one heavy grapevine branch comes away, producing a pulling effect and the rest follow. I managed to get half of the vine reattached to the fence-wall but the last heaviest vine needs to be reattached higher and I have to screw in an anchor to tie it back up. I climbed up on the fence-wall with the anchor screw and ties but couldn't complete the job successfully so the landlord has to help. What I did observe about how the vine branches are attached to the wall is that they haven't been secured very well in the first place. I do get annoyed by such things because this kind of action was not given much foresight in terms of lasting the weather distance.
I've not wanted to disturb the landlord's long weekend either so this week is when I ask for a ladder. I like doing these kinds of problem-solving jobs.

Yes...a large dog could very well have kicked the earth up and the strong wind could very well have brought the vine down. Reality check complete.

I'm not enjoying no change to my income now that I am back renting. I went in and spoke with a representative for Ministry of Social Development and they are not prepared to help me. Not at all. Either I continue to go hungry or I find part-time work. I have a writing project to complete this year and submit to several publishers plus the ordeal with my grandchildren and staying well amidst it all.

So much to think of...it's HOW I think about it all that matters first...♥


**Update :
Damn cats urinating and pawing at the ground and shitting beneath and beside the deck on the ground. At least that's what it looks like to me...? Still not sure because it doesn't smell at all.
